A Door or a Window for the CCC!

Hello there Everyone, how's your weekend going...well I hope and hopefully you still have the sunshine with you, we have rain, I guess the gardens need it.

Well the Choral Society concert should have been tonight, and right now I would have been at Eden Court theater in a rehearsal. What someone from the Choral has come up with is that if we want to get our practice tapes, CD of the music..which is Haydn's Creation, or a You Tube video and sing. We won't hear anyone else, it's not on zoom or anything, but it's just to keep spirits up by singing a wonderful piece of music, and a way of thinking about some of our choir members too.

Alistair has signed up to do Nicola Benedetti's workshops. She is a wonderful young Scottish Violinist, she won Young Musician of the Year a number of years ago, and she is offering these workshops online free. Alistair is spending hours watching her, she is a fantastic teacher he says, only thing is that at his age so many bad habits have been formed, but he's still learning lots. Obviously the downside of this that there is much more fiddling going on with screechy exercises , but I'll get my own back to night with my singing lol.

Anyway, it's time for the Christmas Card Club girls to show their latest creations, and this time it's Margaret who has chosen the theme, Doors and or Windows, with the Anything Goes as a standby if you have nothing to make the themed card with.

A decoupage card from a sheet I found in my stash, I've glittered it up and mounted it on to a copper glitter card. Paper is from a lovely pad from The Works. Sentiment from a Creative Stamping Magazine, and a few red gems to finish off.

My second card uses a Little Claire  image and sentiment, coloured with Copic Markers and gold gel pen and some Star Dust, red and green Stickles.  A stenciled background with DI. I do love that wee goose.

My final card 

Sheena Douglass image and coloured with Copic Markers and some sparkle pen. I've mounted it on to blue card, then an embossed white card, finally some blue glitter card. Sentiment is from a First Edition die, cut twice in white and one in blue glitter paper to give a shadow effect.  blue gems to finish.

 It was a lovely challenge and I very much enjoyed it Margaret so thank you.  Thank you to everyone who commented on my last card, as always I appreciated the time it takes.

I would love to say check out my CCC team mates who are on my side bar, but I can't as they aren't there, and that's because, I don't know how to do it. A few years ago I did have them there, and I thought I had the names linked to their blogs but I didn't. So if anyone could tell me how to do that I'd be really pleased.  Anyhoo, I'm sure you all know who the girls are so do comment on their creations as they are always fabulous.

That's all for now, off to schedule this post for tomorrow, so take care, stay safe and see you soon,
